Liu Ye once risked her life to help someone in need.
When she opened her eyes again, she had become Liu Yeniang, a young woman in ancient times.
Her father had just died. Creditors were at the door demanding repayment, while her greedy uncle wanted to seize the family home.
To pay off their debts and escape her uncle's grasp, the family decides to sell their house and move back to their old village.
Life in the village is peaceful, but hard. To support her family and achieve her own goals, Liu Ye decides to start by selling snacks from a street stall.
From a small town all the way to the prefectural city, Liu's food stall grows from a humble mobile stand into the grand Liu's Restaurant.
Recently, Yan Qingyuan has returned to his old home in Jiangling to recuperate. He keeps hearing his gluttonous young attendant talk about a certain eatery, with its refreshing lotus-seed jelly to beat the heat, sizzling spicy iron-plate tofu, and crisp, charred roast pork.
Yan Qingyuan has never cared much about food. To him, one dish is much the same as another.
Then one day, he happens to pass the stall and buys a bowl of iced jelly. One bite refreshes him to the core, and the summer heat disappears.
From then on, the Liu family's eatery has one more loyal customer.
